WARNING: DISCONNECT POWER PRIOR TO SERVICING
4. Depress the
HIGH VOLTAGE ON
switch/indicator and return the transmitter to
service.

TROUBLESHOOTING.
WARNING
WARNING
NEVER OPEN THE EQUIPMENT UNLESS ALL TRANS
MITTER PRIMARY POWER IS DISCONNECTED. USE
THE GROUNDING STICK PROVIDED TO ENSURE ALL
COMPONENTS AND ALL SURROUNDING COMPO
NENTS ARE DISCHARGED BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
MAINTENANCE ON ANY AREA WITHIN THE TRANS
MITTER.
2-134.
Most troubleshooting consists of visual checks. Because of the high voltages and currents
in the equipment, it is considered hazardous to work with power energized. Therefore, the
various transmitter indicators (meters, LEDs, and fuses) should be used to isolate the
malfunction to one specific area.
2-135.
Troubleshooting within the controller circuit board enclosure is not considered hazardous
due to the low potentials and currents involved. Once the trouble is isolated and power is
totally deenergized, it is suggested that the exact problem be located with resistance
checks using the schematic diagrams and theory of operation presented throughout the
text.
2-136.
If a circuit is diagnosed as faulty, the circuit fault may be isolated and repaired locally or
the entire device may be returned to Broadcast Electronics, Inc. for exchange, alignment,
or replacement.
2-137.
CONTROLLER COMPONENT LOCATIONS.
Figure 2-2 presents the controller compo
nent locations. Refer to Figure 2-2 as required during the troubleshooting procedures to
locate components within the controller.
CAUTION
CAUTION
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE MAIN CIRCUIT
BOARD, DO NOT REMOVE POWER SUPPLY CON
NECTOR P5 WITH POWER ENERGIZED.
2-138.
MAIN CIRCUIT BOARD POWER SUPPLY CONNECTOR P5.
The controller main circuit
board is equipped with power supply connector P5. The main circuit board may be de
stroyed if the connector is removed with power energized. Therefore, disconnect the trans
mitter ac power before removing the connector.
2-139.
MICROPROCESSOR MODULE.
The transmitter controller is equipped with a micropro
cessor module. Figure 2-2 presents the location of the module. The module is designed to
plug directly into header J1 on the main circuit board. In the event of a microprocessor
failure, the module can be replaced by performing the following procedure.
CAUTION
CAUTION
DO NOT REMOVE THE MICROPROCESSOR MODULE
WITH THE TRANSMITTER PRIMARY AC POWER
ENERGIZED.
2-140.
Disconnect the transmitter primary power.
2-141.
Open the controller door and locate the microprocessor module.
2-142.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the microprocessor mounting screw.
